Hey all,

Awesome stuff, thanks for the shares. Taking delivery on a new G80 this summer and have several questions for any of you:

How do these aftermarket mounts stack up to the OEM roof rack mounts from BMW?

Are the Thule, Rhino Rack, and BMW mounting systems for the accessories like snowboard racks & MTB racks all universally compatible (I.e. the monorail with tightening screws?) I ask since I already own Rhino’s snowboard and MTB racks.

Lastly, I have a pretty heavy 50lb YT Decoy e-bike for which I got a rhino rack mount for last season. It’s one thing for BMW’s rack to potentially be “compatible” with a Rhino Rack mount, but for anyone with experience on this, will it be sturdy enough?

If there’s a large difference in sturdiness/quality, I’ll probably just go with Thule or Rhino. The advantage of going OEM is it can get residualized through the factory order before June 😜

Thanks
